Paper Delightz: Not the One

Not the One

Stamps: Upsy Daisy, Fresh Cuts
Card Stock: Yo Yo Yellow, Whisper White, Urban Oasis
Ink: Basic Gray
Accessories: Top Note Die, Styled Silver Hardware, Paper Piercer & Template, Whisper White Organza Ribbon, Small Oval punch, Glue Dots

This isn't the card I originally had in mind when I pulled out my stamps and papers to create, but that's okay. It's good to change things up once and a while...and my Yo Yo Yellow seems to get neglected quite a bit. I like it with the Basic Gray, though...and seem to remember this color challenge a while back. Anyhow...this is a SU only card for a change.

Thanks for your visit!!
